It’s a good thing Breckin Meyer thinks that “acting is pretty enjoyable (and) writing is pretty enjoyable,” because he’s committed to both — on three different TV shows. On-screen, he’s back for his third season as lawyer Jared Franklin on TNT’s Franklin & Bash; behind the scenes, he’s the creator/writer/executive producer of TBS’ Men At Work, and he’s a writer/voice actor on Adult Swim’s Emmy-winning animated comedy Robot Chicken.

Even with all that, Meyer, who’s the father of a 9-year-old daughter, finds plenty of time to indulge his hobbies. “I play basketball, which is odd because I’m knee-high to a grasshopper.”
